Awful app. Amazon has decided that users are incapable of organizing, sorting, or ordering
their own photos. The most basic function of sorting by name does not exist. Want to backup a folder from
your PC and view it here? Nope, it all just gets put in with everything else, not even put into its own
Album. Want to put photos into an album? Hope it's only a couple, because you have to click each photo one
by one, no batch selecting. I'd list more, but reviews are limited to only 500 characters.

Works well auto uploading photos from phone. Love that I can store uncompressed, even raw,
pics. Downgraded to 3 stars due to lack of some basic features. When adding pics to folders you can't
arrange folders alphabetically so you have to look until you find it. Pics won't auto rotate when you rotate
your device. Basic info isn't readily available (location, what folder it is in, etc). No option to delete
pics from your device when deleted from this app. Just not well thought out.

Amazon Photos' primary benefit is its free unlimited photo storage for Prime members. The
application/interface as a whole is OK, but there are some areas for improvement. -1 star for not
automatically sorting images into the album names they were uploaded from. -1 star for taking away the
feature that allowed users to delete photos from the cloud and local storage simultaneously. Please, please
bring it back.

App is clunky and second-rate compared to other similar apps. I can't believe the lack of
features. Also seems like a scam bc there is no way to delete all photos at once.*** So it cons you into
paying for photo storage. Cause who wants to individually select hundreds of photos. *** I figured it out.
You select and then drag/ scroll down through all the photos to select all. Then you can delete multiples or
all photos.

Unlimited free storage for prime member is great, automatic backup is nice. The app is
another story. It has zero features for managing/organizing photos. Only download, add to album, edit,
delete. The desktop web interface at least let's you create folders; and even has the ability to upload
folders from a PC. But there is no access to folders in the app. No way to relocate, rename, or even
navigate. This app simply lacks virtually all the features I need from it.

Love the unlimited photo storage for prime members! Unfortunately, it does not include video
storage, which isn't a huge deal since I move all my videos to an external hard drive anyway. But, the
constant push notification on the app about my videos not being able to be backed up is really annoying. I
swipe it away and then it reappears again quickly. Ugh.

I'm changing my review. I did discover how to edit photos again when the app was changed.
Very nice. Now, I recently discovered the app has been once again 'updated' once again. Updating is not
always a good thing. Why can't you leave it alone? It is not as easy to order prints now with these changes.
My goal is still to empty my app of all photos because I do not want to depend on it...it's not dependable.

The app is very basic and not very user friendly. I wish that it would automatically sort
photos into the same albums that they were imported from. I also wish that the home screen filtered out
photos/videos that have already been added to albums. I'm trying to sort them into albums to organize it,
but from the home screen, all I can see is everything - there is no way of telling which ones have already
been moved to an album. It just feels very disorganized.

Settings don't matter, app does what it wants. Tell it to ignore specific folders, it
uploads anyway. Tell it not to upload videos, it tries to anyway. Don't bother turning off notifications, it
will spam your phone with super random messages. Often about video limits being reached when you've told it
to ignore videos. I've deleted the albums it was supposed to ignore multiple times and they always come
back. Save yourself time and a lot of headaches. Avoid

When I recently discovered that a flash drive, which had all my children's photos on it
since the day they were born, was corrupted and I could no longer use it, I was relieved to find out that
Amazon Photos uploads everything in the background. Now, my photos are safe, and I can finally print them
all while still having secure digital copies.

Unusable. Constant app crashes and upload issues. It took forever to upload my photos and
many of them show up black. You are better off uploading on a PC. Photos are also way to expensive on
Amazon. Walmart offers a much better deal than this. However, this still works as a way to backup your

For the lack of better words. F$-!ing life saver this app is if you take a ton of photos.
They actually took me recommendation and added a button to turn off backing up videos so it's usable for me
now. Just delete some of your vids of your space and clear the trash if its at max first, though; Otherwise
you'll have trouble. Thanks Amazon for unlimited photo original quality+ raw backups!! I'm only scr3^,^ed on
backing up and cloud access to my enormous videos now!!😏😅

I realize, just like all of the picture apps, it's a ploy to squeeze more money out of

Just like Prime, to entice you with extras to join, but only offer the free junk movies, music, etc. and
even though you offer all these incentives for the Prime experience, you don't realize that what you're
getting is half assed until you hook us in. So, no. I don't utilize your Photos App. because I have

Never loose a photo. And as long as you're a prime member you have more saving space. Love
the features; can search by date or photo and you use to be able to fix lighting on pictures taken in low
light. Haven't seen light fix in a minute. But, still I can say nothing bad about Amazon Photos! UPDATE:2024

The fact that you cannot easily multi-select photos like you can in Apl or Ggl photo apps is
a major, major shortcoming that really angers me. The app seems designed to specifically make it hard for
users to mass delete photos, I assume because Amazon wants the data in those pictures for as long as
possible. Therefore, they make it very difficult to perform mass deletion by making mass selection hard.
Trust not thine photos with Amazon.

Not viable alternative to Google photos unfortunately. Amazon photos is not easy to navigate
or understand set up because app is slow , clunky, and freezes . Unresponsive selection & button
pressing , so unable to set up albums or face recognition. I was hoping to have gallery organization that
removes photos or marks photo that i have sorted. hate going through thousands of photos not knowing what
was already sorted or not sorted. With Amazon Photos even scrolling is slower that drying paint.

Going downhill fast. Contacted them many times trying to fix issues with tagging errors. All
my kids are auto tagged as the same kid, and was told to individually manually fix 1000s of photos. They
still advertise free photo print delivery but it's actually $3.50 shipping now. No more ordering prints from
the app, but instead get redirected to a basic website with an awful cropping feature, using a 3rd party
company. Transfering uploads will be awful, but hate that memories are committed here.

Best Way to Save Photos and Videos. Everyone has an Amazon prime account, this app gives you
free photo storage with one. That's incredible. I decided to pay for the video storage and it's all so
seamless and easy. You can share very quickly and I have had no issues. It's also nice to pull up the pics
on the computer so fast and easy.

Unlimited storage as a perk! Awesome! I think this app will improve over time and include
more features and little tweaks based on user feedback and so far I like it and use it. So far this app has
no downside. I wish I could pay to host my videos and then I wouldn't need any other subscriptions!!! Are

Amazon Photos would be great but my prime benefits somehow was having issues with someone
hacking me and when I stopped having prime apparently my Amazon photos were all deleted. Before everything
would synch with previous emails I'd have so I figured my photos which I saved on there would be there. -one
good thing is Amazon Photos uploads and saves all photos and doesn't delete to save space

App works well to upload photos from phone, but after that, is not helpful. I have 50+
albums that can't be sorted by name and appear in random order with names partially hidden. So it is time
consuming, if not useless, to show photos to other people. Text search feature needs to use deep search;
otherwise you have to know the first name of the album. The tools to edit albums and other cleanup is also
very limited. Much better to do on the computer.

This app does what it wants. Set it to upload whatever folders you choose but the minute you
go back to your photos, it unchecks the folders you checked. It will do this over and over. I can go to my
desktop where I have to download photos from Google to the computer, then upload them to Amazon. Many extra
steps and as a bonus, it turns them sideways so I have to edit them one at a time to turn them back to
normal. This app just randomly chooses what it will upload and there is no way to fix it.

Pros (5 stars): It's great if you need a place to store photos. Unlimited photo storage.
Cons (0 stars): Searching for a photo is about as easy and helpful as dumping a shoebox full of loose photos
on the floor and searching one by one for the photo you're looking for. Despite setting the app to
automatically upload photos, it rarely happens unless I open the app to double check. Unlimited photo
storage for Prime members only. No longer offers unlimited video storage to Prime members.

It's fantastic. I'm hoping they continue to make it better. It makes you feel good about
being a prime member and having these benefits. It has its positives and negatives. Nothing that probably
won't get better with time. Currently, my Amazon drive is locked, and they can't seem to unlock it after
multiple attempts. Been five months that it's been locked. It's terrible we don't have access to our photos.

Can't give it zero stars, so I guess one star goes for photo dumpster backup functionality.
There is no way to organize your photos. Imagine you uploaded few hundreds or thousands of photos and
managed to create some albums. There is no folder structure, there is no albums inside albums, there is no
tags. If you ever need to get your photos back - you will be able to get a huge pile in one folder. Good
luck organizing it again :-( Totally useless as photo storage.

The picture cloud has kept photos from every device it was downloaded onto. It is a seemless

kind of tricky to figure out how to purchase photos. I keep trying to crop a photo so I can
have it printed, and every time it saves it disappears. or it goes somewhere unknown that I can't find,
which is essentially the same thing. I downloaded this app so I could edit and purchase photos, and after

It does exactly what I need it to do: show slideshows of my photos on an Echo Show. It would
be nice if Alexa's voice commands could add photos to specific albums when you see a photo you want to
organize. As it is, I have to say "favorite this photo" and then later I open the app to use my favorites
list as a to-do list, organizing the flagged photos more specifically.

Half baked, seemingly unsupported app. 5* on the unlimited photos for Prime Members. 1* on
functionality. This app is ONLY good for viewing a photo dump from your phone. But anything related to
Android photo folder management usage or syncs is non-existent. For a techie like me, even navigating this
app is confusing! The PC app is where you can get more things done, and what this Android app should be
ambitioning for (or Microsoft's OneDrive app for that matter).

I started using it after being enticed by free Amazon credit, but surprisingly I think I
prefer it over Google Photos. It isn't quick to immediately start backing up every phot which is a pro in my
opinion since I end up screenshotting or downloading images quickly then deleting them. I can delete photos
off Amazon Photos without it trying to delete the one on my phone like with Google Photos. Last but not
least it's pretty convenient since I already am paying for Amazon Prime.

👎 It's pretty lame actually. once you hide certain pics, it's very difficult to get back to

I like how it nicely it subdivides sections one from another and/or allows you to do the

you deem private, naughty, sexy, and/or joyous, sacred, personal, or for your businesses and thereby should
be in a vault of their own. Also, it's very handy how Amazon Photos picks up the photos from your camera and
your phone's Gallery app so that you can access them on various devices. Very useful.

Amazon Photos Saved My Life (the many parts that were captured in various snapshots)! The
automatic folders created helps to keep organizing easy, plus if you need to create additional folders, then
the world is your oyster. My ultimate fav is ordering dynamic prints of your photos. Familiar w/Google
Photos? You'll recognize options like different canvas sizes, metal prints, etc. This beats Google Photos bc
u can print onto clear glass-like acrylic, which is sturdy & aesthetic pleasing.

no one but myself can copyright them. I deleted the app immediately after I read that. Also there's no trash
can to make sure your photos are deleted and it's not an easy app to use. You're better off using Google
drive. It's free and much easier to use!!!!!

This app only presents historic photos in portrait mode and is unable to adjust to
landscape. So anytime you take a picture and you try to turn it to its proper format, it fails and returns
you to a starting point. I'm certain that others have mentioned this over the last two years, but Amazon
(and Mr. Bezos) don't care because they (he) have (has) locked you in and still gain income and personal
info from the photos.

Amazon photo gives me peace of mind knowing that my photos are backed up. Not on my device
which can be lost or a hard drive in my house which could be damaged and is vulnerable to fire. It's an
insurance policy for my memories. My one complaint is the app keeps nagging me to backup folders that I do
not want backed up such as GIPHY and Bitmoji even though these folders are not selected. Yes, if a new
folder is discovered, please notify me. Don't notify me if it has been ignored before.

This app is an afterthought of an afterthought. Picture selection is a pain using the
ridiculous tiny thumbnails. Mass deleting junk photos is a pain. Navigating the weird interface is a pain.
And the one place I thought this would shine is digital picture frame integration, but no. Aside from
backing every photo I ever take (that's a lot of junk I don't want) this app is just a pain to use and
misses every opportunity to be useful by instead just being another dumb backup application.

Great for saving images, perhaps mainly because it's got no space limit. A few features are

I'm knocking 2 stars off due to Frustrating user interface issues. The older version of the
app was actually better. Uploads are turned off but I kept getting upload paused notifications. I had to
turn all notifications off as it wasn't clear any notification setting was working. Functions are
confusingly spread across buttons and a button drawer. When you pull the drawer up the buttons disappear.
Uploading into albums could be more straight forward. Suggest that the Dev team take a UX course.

It's alright. Google photos have set a relatively high president, and it's such a shame that
they're going to be charging for their service. The fact I can upload unlimited photos and not have to
compromise on quality is very appealing. *** UPDATE Notification saying that "32 videos could not be saved
due to lack of storage" is really annoying as it's happening daily. Show it once and allow me to dismiss the
notification. I'm pretty sure this type of notification is against Googles policy.

Having unlimited photo storage with a Prime is great, but the app's user interface could be
easier to navigate and there doesn't seem to be any way to pause a photo backup. Why would I want to pause a
backup? Well that brings me to this app's biggest flaw: when performing a backup, my entire home network's
bandwidth is used and nobody can use the Internet until it is done, which takes a ridiculous amount of time
(over 10 minute per photo.) Please allow us to pause backups or limit the bandwidth!

folders are being uploaded without my consent.

The folder I configured for automatic upload contains 75 pictures and videos. Only 2 photos
and 2 videos are automatically uploaded, then according to the app "no items waiting to be uploaded". Manual
upload requires selecting each item in a folder separately; no way to select all, which would be feasible
with 75, but not hundreds of items. I have a Prime account, but get only 5GB instead of the expected
unlimited storage. Very disappointing.

For all those reviewing recently and thinking the app is 'great'. You used to be able to

click on a face and say who it was, which is now gone. You used to be able to upload your photos directly
from your phone's photo app, which is now gone. The app looks better to the eye, but is pretty terrible now.
I have around 200 photos to upload, and have to manually press on EACH ONE OF THEM...

It doesn't work. I can't view my photos. Every time I open the app it is buffering and I
just have a blank screen. It takes forever to upload photos, a process which is instantaneous on Google
photos. It's free as I'm a prime member, but just like prime video, it's not really a bonus as I'm not using
it. Amazon sadly seems to be going off track a little at the moment.

Terrible app. Interface is horrendous, unable to navigate properly. There is no clear screen
how to navigate. It has carried over my folders but not clearly shown how to go through these. It's a
nightmare app but somewhere else to store my photos besides my hard drive. I can o ly assume the ratings are
so high because they're paying bots or something.

I had lots of videos and my Google account kept saying I ran out of room and couldn't edit
or use any other Google apps until I made room in my storage. Amazon Photos allows unlimited photos in their
plan for the same price as Google Photos that does not. For me that was a huge selling point since I have
lots of videos of my grandchildren ❤️

Navigating the app and trying to sync photos to your fire stick can be a bit ambiguous. It
hasn't been as easy as just selecting photos that you want to appear on your television. It tends to take
other photos that have been synced from Google photos or your cell phone and include them (even if not
selected).

It's a good app overall and is nice to be able to store photos on the app and be able to
access from any device. The downside is not being able to customize the order of photos in albums. Currently
you can only organize by date or photo name

Seems to work about half,i would be very reluctant to give up my photo on Google at this
point. I have 1700 photos that won't up load so at this point this app is novelty at best.Even this review
process is about half. You should be telling me if i can print,back up photos,and buy photos! Don't give up
your Google storage... Normally prime is very impressive they jumped th gun on this one

Horrible with the latest version of the app. All my pictures in my album dissappeared, and I
cannot view them on my phone or PC using the app. I can still see them using the firestick on my TV. How do
I retrieve these photos that dissappear from my Amazon photo account?

Love... Love... Love!!! Update: I'm taking away one star because I was notified that my
videos are no longer being uploaded to my cloud due to a lack of video storage, yet I had a 1-2T storage
that I'm now being told has expired. Really? How 🤔 and why. Yet, there is no additional information on how
to secure more video storage space!!

When I accidentally delete photos off my phone that I don't want deleted I know I can run

Then I realized all my photos are automatically saved here!

Why when I use it I always feel it's done on purpose that there is no AI to improve
automatically my pictures when most competition does it, ex Google photos? There are virtually no features
on this app. I think Amazon just does not want it to be used on purpose.

Great for simple unlimited storage if you have Amazon prime. No idea how it is for non prime
users though. Also, might want to read the user agreement carefully if you really care about privacy and
stuff. Companies are trying different ways to train ai models you know...

I like my photos in one spot. It groups your photos in separate folders The only thing that
I don't understand is it will put a grey stripe over your older pictures so sometimes you aren't keeping old
pictures. I had rated it at 5 but since I can't get old pictures I am bringing it down til 3

Been using Amazon photos for years was working very well. But today I tried signing in and
it keeps saying something went wrong. After talking to customer service rep found out my account had been
locked due to unauthorized attempted log in. After talking to five different Representatives over two days.
I cannot get the account unlocked. They told me wait for an email from support. 7 Days later nothing. I
called him back still unable to unlock my account. Again wait for an email from support

I really love the unlimited photo storage. I had no clue what to do with the first 3.5 years
of photos and videos of my daughters life on my old phone that hasn't been backed up anywhere after I
switched service, and where I would be able to continue to upload without constantly increasing the monthly
fee for storage, as I had been doing before. I do wish there was more room for videos since I can't upload
all of the ones I have, but I will still give 5 stars for free unlimited photo storage!

It seems that it only uploaded part of my photos... I think it got all my most recent pics
but then uploaded random ones from further back... I haven't figured out a way to force it to upload my
entire library. I have over 13,000 photos/ videos in my Google account, but have to pay monthly for extra

As a Prime member I love this app because it saves all my photos in one place so I never
have to worry about losing them. There has been a couple times I accidentally deleted photos from my phone
but I was able to go straight to this app and get them back. I like being able to choose which folders to
automatically save photos from. Also I like how it gives me the option to automatically save photos as soon
as I take them with my phone. With this app I know my photos are forever safe.

Got an email stating that if I uploaded that I would get a $20 Amazon credit. I uploaded
about a month ago and no credit was applied to my account and I cannot find an option to speak to someone to
ask about it. I was considering switching to Amazon photos but if I cannot trust Amazon with full filling an
offer , how can I trust them with personal things like my photos or data. So thanks for lying to me Amazon .
You can keep the $20 credit and I'll keep using what I have been.

Great idea, but is quite glitchy and needs some serious improvement. Good start, now please
create a better UI that isn't as intense when you have larger amounts of photos. Not very user-friendly when

Very slow in uploading. Besides, why do you have to show all photos from the phone even when

Then, there is a confirmation popup that appears right above the delete button.

It's a great backup but would be better if it maintained the file structure instead of
lumping them all together. Further it doesn't pick up the photos not physically saved to the device so those

I like the idea of it, and I hope it starts working soon, but as of now, it simply doesn't
work. 80% of the time, nothing shows up. Everything stays plain white or it might have a Loading screen.
When it does work, it works fine, but that's only about 20% of the time. Which is irritating because it asks
me every day if I want to see my memories, which I do, but I can never access them.

The WORST app. Removed bulk upload ages ago but thought I'd put up with it as I already had

I really like the simplicity of this app. The interface feels very smooth. I like the filter

Maybe the touch area could be a little bigger or faster apply. Years and videos filters are also pretty

photo upload paused, please open the app? Why...? The app is used as an archiver. The latest
beg for end users to open an app that A) serves little purpose beyond data archival and B) has an arguably
poor UX, is remarkably annoying. Is this a leading indicator for the inside performance of Amazon at a
financial level? Curtail consumer consumption of subscribed/paid services through digital speed bumps?

This used to work so well, and was one of my favourite apps. Unfortunately, I suspect
Amazon's migration from Drive to Photos has caused some performance issues. This app is now constantly

In an attempt to try and make it user friendly it has dumbed the experience down so much
it's confusing and convoluted. This app tries so hard to hide where your photos are you can't tell what the

that regard the older versions was much better. If it weren't for the Echo Shows I have I wouldn't touch

No select all option when selecting photos. When you move a selection of photos to an album,
it remains in the camera roll section, so you have no idea which photos are in an album and which aren't
making it impossible to organise photos. No option to turn off the memories and random creations that pop
up, if you don't want them. Really annoying app, very limited options. Would have expected better from

My initial impression is very good. It seems to be a great way to back up all your photos
full size and sync across all devices, with unlimited storage included for Prime members, and works well for

organised into folders and categories which I like and it's very easy to manage images taken on multiple

Amazon photos, for free, is excellent. But this app is too lightweight and unreliable: It

great for about 1 or 2 minutes, then seems to jam, or freeze. Perhaps there are issues with memory

This app allows you to free up your phones storage!! I just recently downloaded it (March
2024), so I haven't had a chance to try out the collections' features that it offers.

Provides extra storage freeing up space on my phone. Very friendly user interface and
navigation is simple.

I find it very difficult to navigate this app. I only use it to add photos to my FireTV
screensaver and it takes me 20 minutes to do something that should take less than 5.

The app is good for storage but once you make an edit on a picture it goes into a sort of
limbo. There's an occasional dark space (not sure if that's a previously deleted picture). Aside from this,
the app is pretty easy to use. It also has storage for videos and that's paid of course but worth it.

Love Amazon photos, saves space in my phone and makes it so easy to share the pictures I
take with others. The other parents from my sons' sports teams live how easy it is for me to share the
photos with them!!+

Things I love about this app: 💖 -Unlimited storage for Prime members -Simple, user-friendly
interface -Buttons to quickly filter phots by time, location, people, etc. -Quickly share photos via link
even to people with no Amazon Photos app This I would love for this app to have: 🙏 -Option to sort photos
from oldest to newest -Smaller tile view (like 5x5 or smaller than that) for app (web version has options
for tile view) -App lock (encrytion) using PIN or biometrics That's all for now!

I'm giving this app a 4 because as soon as I downloaded the app it loaded every picture and
screen shot I had on my phone automatically. It took me 2 days to delete the pictures and screen shots that
I did not want shared with an outside source. The app should have asked me to go to photos to pick the
photos to be uploaded. There should have been a short tutorial to watch previous to this download for
uncomputerized older people like myself.

For the past year I have tried to continue using this app, but every time I open it, I can
see anything, my pictures won't show and won't back up either. It just says, "something went wrong". Someone
please help, I like this one better than the competition, but if I can't use it, why bother?

4/24 what have u done? Cant easily upload manually now? Manual. Bring back the feature in
manual upload where it only shows pics, videos we havent uploaded yet. U had it before then took it away. I
think u have a criminal mind here wanting to force automatic uploads on us. Also why r screenshots showing
up under the camera folder. I have separate folders but u mix them in.

Previously we enjoyed the app but since the new update, the app is not working correctly.
Often unable to add photos to a map or do anything else with the photos, like downloading them. The buttons
are not working properly. Also cannot select multiple photos at the same time. It is very nice that you can
upload the photos for free, but if you cannot do anything with the photos it is useless.

Fantastic that my pictures are uploaded but equally disappointed it is limited only to
photos beyond 5Gb of videos! 5Gb video is almost nothing these days ! So I end up paying for another cloud
storage despite using Amazon's cloud storage facility! In addition, if it gives the option to keep folders
as I maintain usually. That would have made it easier to trace back my pics when and how I wanted !

Gone to do some archiving of photos today and I really have lost the will to use Amazon
photos. This product is now officially terrible. All I want to do is bulk upload some but not all of my
photos and then with that same selection in place delete those photos. The product doesn't have the ability
to automatically delete photos that have already been uploaded. I have started to use Google photos again.

I hope you don't have to delete anything because if you do please allow yourself 10 minutes
per photo. You will not be able to continue on until each photo that gives you a banner to inform you that
you deleted your photo that will last 5-10 minutes until it fades away. It is the most ridiculous and
retarded waste of time that I have seen in a long time and do not understand how it is a good idea and
mandatory for it to be in the way. Google and Amazon are just way too smart for me I guess.

As positives this has unlimited storage for full size photographs and auto upload works
well. However not what you need if your looking to upload video such as little Jonny blowing out his candles
as there is next to no storage for that. It's great that it's free but you always run the risk of Amazon
changing their minds and starting charging once you invested in uploading 1000s of snaps.

Chaotic way of organizing photos. When adding a photo to an album in Amazon Photos, there
should be an option to exclude photos which have already been added. Also, when uploading device folders,
there should be an option to create a folder in Amazon photos with the same name instead of having to
manually do it afterwards. Please introduce a proper search function with a magnifying class to type in
keywords.

Doesn't let you differentiate control between video and photos. Is always trying to upload

remove goggle photo. Still will continue to use.

Never knew this was a thing, now that I do, I love it! Can finally stop getting the
notifications from Google and that I'm out of storage.

Usually good. Sometimes hard to access the photos that I want because you have too many

Stop auto-including new device folders. Needs multi-select when making albums. Edit: they

I've been using the Amazon Photos app to securely store photos for years. My photos are
always there when I need and/or want them. There's several ways to organize the photos to make them easy to
find, with the help of Amazon AI. Keep the photo albums, and be sure to back them up here.

I like the app; particularly the ability to view our photos as a screen saver with our

Great for storage "keeping photos forever'. It's worth buying prime for the added extras...
alway keep backed up.. I'm proud of the founder of Prime I've been with them for as long as I've been able
to pay their competitive fee. Thanks Amazon Prime. You remind me if great days. To say for the start.

It is very meaningful to be reminded of events from earlier times... moments, or hours, with

Uploaded photos (12k of them!) are backed up BUT at a Resolution that males them all about
half a mb and not worthy of print. Worthless. My camera photos are generally 5mb up to 15mb. They say
Unlimited uploads at FULL RESOLUTION. I'm sure all these pics are basically lost forever?! For a company
known as innovative this app is a horrendous failure, and AMAZON DOESN'T CARE. It only gets worse.

I just switched from Google photos. I kept running out of room in photo storage which also
said my email would run out of room. It's so frustrating. I am new to the Amazon photo app, so 4 stars is my
best right now. I am still learning this app, which so far is pretty easy, and I am very happy right now. 👍

Doesn't let you group photos together the way you want so it's easier when time to order
prints. When photos are downloaded from Google photos, some of the photos are cropped with parts chopped
off. Ordering is very easy and come very quickly.

In our business we use Amazon photos to store pictures of our many products so speed is
essential. Sometimes it's slow to upload pictures and create new folders so it lost a star because of the
speed. Otherwise, it's great. Exactly what we needed for our ecommerce business picture storage need.

Update: Who wrote the programming for this? The coders for this are awful. You can't tag
people easily on the mobile app, search for people in large clusters, add location to photos and the facial

and almost useless app. It's just cloudy storage. Amazon... You might want to fire the people who wrote
this. It's embarrassing.

I want to rate it 5for the unlimited photo storage for Prime members, but the app's manual
upload mode is the worst! It keeps hanging while uploading photos, doesn't allow me the option to "select
all", and often doesn't give me the option to go back to manual upload once it has hanged, I had to
reinstall several times. The web version from a PC is better, but I need to first transfer all my photos to
my PC!

The Amazon photo app in my humble and honest opinion really is only good for showing your

Why would you guys automatically upload all my photos in my phone. No option to select a

Can't upload or download from Amazon photos unless receiver has Amazon photo app already
installed. Makes it impossible to send a photo to someone who does not have the Amazon app. I think the
Google app is much more useful. I can't imagine how in the world this app got a 4.7 rating. In my opinion it
is about a 0.0 rating. All Amazon cares about is making more and more money I guess 20 billion is not enough
so they're to find no ways to charge you more money.

I was promised a promo to download this app. It has slowed my phone down and the promo
promised only works on items shipped and sold by Amazon. Good luck finding those items because you have to
go into each item on Amazon and then see if it is shipped and sold by Amazon. Oh and the promised promo is
for $20. What they don't tell you it it has to be an item over $40 before they apply it.

I use my camera for work, so I end up with several hundred photos every month. This would
devour my phone's memory, so with Amazon Photos I can take all the pictures I need for work and have them
stored for me and delete them from my phone, freeing up my phone's memory. I then still have them to use in
my reports and can retrieve them when a client needs some information six months later.

any way to select the videos I want to keep and the ones that I don't... The App could be better and more
user friendly in my opinion.

App will constantly try to scrape everything off your phone. I have photos I do *not* want
uploaded. There is no obvious way to disable auto upload other that removing the permission, which renders
the app competely useless. No way to organize photos. Kinda terrible...

The manual upload feature doesn't work for me... I select my photo, select 'upload' then it
just closes the manual upload page and nothing happens. App works great on the folders I want to auto sync

the new version of the app no longer allows selecting all photos taken on the same day,
which makes it more difficult to select a group of photos with a single click, which makes, for example,
very difficult to create an album with daily photos

I installed this to take part in a promotion. However, it will only see photos on my phone
upto November 2021 (over 2 years ago). Everything I have taken after this the app just won't find. I can't
find how to change this, so what's the point of the app.
F Drage
This app is good to archive photos but it's not good to organise them. For example, instead
of individually selecting photo, it would be great if I can batch select photos by tap& drag my finger
across multiple photos.

Brilliant! Love this app. As a Prime member I have unlimited photo storage. It automatically
backs up my photos from my phone saving me the hassle and I can also sort them into albums. Wouldn't be

I love being able to get to my photos easily and have a backup In case something happens to
my phone. What I don't like though is how they took out the dates of when I took them. Now they are all just
jumbled together. I like more organization. They need to bring that back

Just a spinning circle, no actual photos on my phone app are showing up. They have come up
on the tv but there is no option to delete any so my tv is now full of memes and other images from my

Works well. Like the notifications of photos. Really wish it had more storage for videos.
Learning that storage for Video was so limited was a bummer but the photo stuff works seamlessly.

actually IS IN FACT a better app altogether...I 100 truth be told fr fr LOVES my Amazon Photos app, but the

This app is trash. There is no way to select all photos to upload. You have to select each
pic individually to upload. I have THOUSANDS of pics on my phone. That would take forever. How absurd.

you can't choose to have'em or not on the front page), there's no editing tool whatsoever. So, yeah, not so
great. Wondering for how long this unlimited thing will last.

Helpful and easy to use. I love the "on this day" function that brings up pictures from last
year and many other years that were taken on the same date and around the same date.

Auto uploads soon after I've taken pics or scans. Think once a week would be better bcs I
don't need to keep even half of them. Don't know if I can change the schedule for the uploads, but I'll
check into it. Works well if you need this sort of thing.

Please bring back the old app! This one is terrible. The main problem I have is I can't tell
what photos are on my phone and which are in the cloud. The old app had a cloud icon on photos uploaded.

Auto transfer of pictures is very simple and doesn't require any time. I do plan to take

I love Amazon Photo, I just wish they can get unlimited even if you want 2TB's of space you
can get it. But I love it as a screen saver when you watch the fire stick, ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! 💯

Amazon Photos is a 5 star app now, not just for backing up pictures & videos. The app
upgrades made it easier to use and added new features. I really like the "On this Day" notifications to see
photos from previous years so I get to relive the memories and share them with family too.

They have dumbed this app down so much that it is useless. I can't even find the search
capability. This app is somewhat useless with the recent changes. How's helping to replace google photos
with this app but I can't.

The only issue I had was getting all my pictures uploaded, instead only my camera roll was
being uploaded but I was able to get it working. Ever since, all my pictures have been uploaded fine.

Really good way of viewing pictures, better than a digital photo frame, and easier to select
or deselect photos to be included in the slideshow

You know I like the app so far I'm hoping that they give me a folders that I can organize my
photos in but I haven't fully use it so maybe they do but I just haven't fully use it that way but the fact
that I've had time for at least 5 years and I've never use this is perplexing to me cuz it's like no brainer

I wish that when the memories come up as a phone notification and it goes through he

Yeah nothing like Amazon uploading every single photo on your phone including things that
should not be shared with family. I never gave them authorization to auto save any of my photos yet

*****I L ove to see what the "On This Day" photo will be each day. Some times It's a great
memory other times its a pic that will make me sad bc time changes and people change .. It may be a photo
from last Year or X amount of years ago. Either way, it tugs at my heart! Especially since I have photos
from the time my daughter was Born till now ... and she's 11. Definitely Bittersweet! 5 stars *****

Excellent app for backing up your lovely memories of your entire life in one place for an

don't need to compromise the resolution of your photos and access from any other device. You can easily
delete your photos on the phone after uploading and free up your phone memory. When you have an Amazon Prime
account, you can enjoy its other benefits, such as shopping and prime video as well.

Too slow to load picture. Takes time to process them and videos you can't watch them right

be taken again.

Good luck with this POS and your Screensavers on your Firestick. "Albums" pop up out of

I really like this app. Just two things can get better, one to have more options of how to
order the albums (for example descending order by name) and two, when I upload photos via the app to be able
to create a folder with the name of the album instead of having all of them uploaded to the same folder
(something like Mobile Uploads)... Other than that, everything is perfect and easy to use.

Generally does what you expect, but it could be waaaay clearer on where your pictures reside
and what happens when you delete stuff. Still it's come a long way and I like the "on years past"
functionality. Edit: had to roll back to the last version still named "prime photos" as the newer ones have
a deal-breaker bug where when you click on a picture for full-screen viewing you get a completely different
picture which might be 100 flicks away.

happened this day notifications are a nice reminder. Also using the Amazon service they are accessible
through a smart TV. And it's free with Amazon Prime. What's not to like!!

Ok kudos for free storage we will see how long that lasts. Update November 2022. This app
works when it feels like. It takes numerous opening and closing of the app just for it to recognise new
photos have been taken. It also ignores the fact "auto save using mobile data" is selected, unless I
manually select "upload" by clicking on a single photo. It then warns about uploading using mobile data. The
desktop app is just as bad. Meh

seem to do that anymore which is super annoying when I'm deleting duplicates or things that I don't need. On
top of that, I tried twice to leave feedback through the app and got errors each time which deleted what I

Since the update that changed the entire app, many quality of life features for one reason
or another were completely removed. You can no longer select all, making uploading, sorting, moving, and
more very tedious and annoying when managing many images. You can no longer quickly cycle through your
images by date, making you need to scroll all the way down to view older images. You can no longer playback
an album or selection of images in a slideshow. These things makes using the app unenjoyable.

It comes with a big brand name. Therefore it's more important that it works fine, each time
and all time. In my case, I found it difficult to get its promised service. It doesn't back up seamlessly,
in time. In many occasions, like now, it started to upload, only when I stated using the app. Another very
serious problem is, it starts to upload folders (say, WhatsApp images) that I don't want and NOT selected
for backup. Seems like a flaw to me.

pictures you want uploaded, and then after they are uploaded select them Again one by one on the app, and
add them. You can no longer see the peoples names, just snapshots of heads. And many more..

After Amazon Music now Photos is utterly ruined as well. The interface is more complicated,
all my albums are missing, can't seem to create new ones either and the overview of which photos have been
backed up is gone and these extremely annoying in-your-face Daily Memories are the worst and cannot be

this bad. The latest update asks for feedback but fails to save the feedback. Another fail.

Used to be 5 Star then the update came. It's so hard to search for your photos. You have to
do it individually. I cannot transfer/Save the folder itself from my Computer to the Cloud. I have to do it
Manually. When it's on the Cloud. You have to search for every photo and make a Folder/Album from there on.
Which is a bit frustrating. What's good about this is you can transfer the Photos without compromising the
Quality. Which I really like. There you hit it right.

This. Is. Dreadful. A re-write of the app, and it now focuses strongly on photos stored in
the cloud, and 'on this day' functionality. Other functionality still includes controlling which photos are
uploaded. This used to be done by selecting displayed photos (on the phone, cloud, both) and pressing
upload. Now you have to press theAmazonsymbol, go into Settings (!!) and then Upload Manually! This isn't a
setting, it's functionality! The release needs reverting to previous. Awful...

Until the recent update, I had this app rated at 5 stars. It retains most of the features of
the old version and the new interface looks clean, modern and is easy to navigate once you've had a play
about with it for a few minutes. Throw in unlimited photo storage for Prime members, it's pretty awesome.
However, it only gets 3 stars now, as photos no longer rotate when I turn my phone meaning that a photo
taken in landscape mode has to be viewed in portrait mode. Why? Please fix this.

12/16/18: Unlimited photo storage for Prime members is wonderful. Overall, a great app, but
as soon as I paid for extra storage for my videos they keep reuploading constantly, even the folders that I
chose not to auto save. Update 12/10/19: At least once a month my Auto Save folders setting resets and the
app starts reuploading everything again. No duplicates recognition whatsoever, and no way to cancel the
reuploading unless I don't want to auto save the folder.

I really love that with prime you get unlimited photo storage for original photo sizes. As a
photographer, that is honestly a huge deal, but the only thing I would have some feedback on is the
interface. Navigating the photos is easy enough, but for someone like me where I need to organise all of my
photo shoots, I find it to be more complicated then I'd like. If they could just make organizing photos much
more simple and creating folders as well, it would be perfect.

I love the fact Prime subscribers get unlimited space for full resolution pictures,
including RAW files. The app needs further development and massive bugs fixes. The auto-save option is
faulty (freezes at 99% of the first picture). Also, it would be nice adding some more features like
uploading pictures straight to an album. At the moment you can only get some functionality only in
conjunction with Amazon Drive. look forward to seeing some changes soon.

I would give this app no stars, if I could. Since installing, it has randomly uploaded some,
but not all, photos from my phone and has messed up what's left. Where I should have photos, I have screen
after screen of blackness or a grey triangle with an exclamation mark in it in their place. I thought this
App just backed your photos up to the cloud but it has left me without so many memories. I'm gutted. In
addition, it fails to connect for any length of time and only transfers a few photos

Now that Amazon Drive is being discontinued, this app is the only option for sorting any
photos backed up to Amazon. The sortation options here are SEVERELY lacking for anyone with a large photo
collection. You can't even have subfolders, and while there are automatic facial recognition tags, you can't
add custom tags, so the tag feature is useless for any photos that aren't of people. Amazon Photos has some
nice features (e.g. built-in editor) but is not a substitute for Amazon Drive.

UI is not intuitive. Not integrated with sharing options. Only able to share photos that are
on your phone and not from other apps/sources such as Google photos etc. And yes I've tried sharing via
WhatsApp to include in phone folders (no luck) downloading from the apps themselves (not available from
Google photos) and screenshots (why should I have to resort to this?). No option to choose another photo
source to display on Alexa show. No option to add collaborators. Just a terrible app.

Much better since the upgrade, as photos are now shown most recent at the top in albums.
Thank you for making that change. It's still not a great use experience for albums - please add the ability
to sort albums alphabetically. I'm not sure what the sorting logic is right now, but it's definitely not
alphabetically. Also would be great to have the created date show as you scroll through the photos to know
where you are at in the timeline.

Clunky to use, isn't easy to navigate around and move photos. However does upload quickly
and is available across all platforms, family vault is a nice touch. The filters and people recognition are
very good. No facility to order prints in the UK as far as I can tell, and does not 'talk' with any of the

It works well most of the time, we have the pics on oiur tv when its paused. I do have to
adjust it to make sure it pulls through from all of the folders instead of just 1, or sometimes it gets
stuck on the same 4 pictures which is weird. So there are glitches that amazon could work on to make it work
better, but i like how easy it is to stick a picture in a folder and then have it appear on the tv like it's

photos via wi-fi it seems to swamp the connection stopping other devices on the same router, even though it
does the backup at a relatively slow speed. Recently (Sept 20) the app is unable to properly backup, getting
stuck in a loop of trying to upload a pic, with others in the q unactioned.

Hate that Amazon Photos is constantly refreshing if you have to use another app or check
notifications. If you are partway through creating albums or setting up your Fire TV screen saver, it resets
to the top and you have to go through all of the photos again to continue. And really there's no other
reason to have this app on your phone that I can see. Huge waste of time and effort.

It is the easiest way I have found to get photos off my android phone. The process is
fiddly. And I don't seem to be able sometimes to end up with a JPEG file, just some sort of htm file. Shame
Amazon Photos is going to be withdrawn, really. They do the same with credit cards, of course. Set up
something with good features, then withdraw it. Why??

Dependable back up for all your photos. The app features easy and effective back up from all
your devices, so you don't even have to remember to do it. You can organise onto albums and there's date
ordering by upload and date taken. My reservation, all one of it, is that I'd like more file information to
be available, specifically for type and size. It would be easier for me to delete images I don't want to
keep.

I like that the storage is unlimited and high quality but some features don't work that well
such as the "Places" feature. For some reason it hasn't been able to pick up on any of my photos locations
from Mexico to Russia to Alberta, etc. I don't think there's a way to add it in manually either. So that's
disappointing... otherwise I enjoy it and the Photo of the day notification is awesome reminds me of the
Facebook memories :)

It's great for uploading photos to Amazon when I have prime. But the downside is when I want
to browse photos through the app on Android it's a total different story. Quality is just junk, even if I
tried downloading any source of high quality photo, it ends cheap quality. I'm not a computer user at all
times, I'm more as a mobile user, so on my experience on my end is not great. If I was to use on my desktop,
sure everything is as advertised.

Not user-friendly & lots of bugs - Auto-save features isn't working properly. I can
either automatically save ALL of my photos or NONE. If I have it set to upload specific albums, it won't.
Very difficult to browse the photos as the way everything is sorted is not efficient. I don't care about my
memories from this day last year, I care about backing up important images and sharing them among my
devices. The latest major change left this app undesirable.

As it does happen often, you change a great app, and you screw it. Amazon app was good.
Minimalist. One could navigate easily and create folders as far as I am aware. The update made app
cumbersome. Harder to navigate. Cannot create folders anymore. There is album feature but it's not
straightforward what album actually means. I tried to create folder and was unable to do it. Sad.

The latest update has converted this photo storage app from one of the best out there to
being completely unusable. No longer can photographs be viewed in landscape. So much functionality has been
stripped away to downgrade the experience. This is such a disappointment. So many wasted hours uploading
photos and creating albums that cannot be viewed in the way they were taken.. Either this is a bug that
needs to be fixed pronto or is part of a policy to simplify the app that has gone badly wrong.

Wow! The opposition had better watch out this shows real promise. I particularly like the
fact that when you move to trash you're given the option to move the cloud item (s) to trash too. It may
seem a small point but with the modern propensity to snap just about anything she comes to spring cleaning
in the past cloud storage really built up which not only meant a lot of unnecessary storage built up, but
more importantly browsing old storage is considerably easier.

Good app and great service. App needs polishing. The app doesn't behave as smoothly as
Google Photos does for example. Going full screen on a photo makes it "jump" on the screen, the animations
are not consistent (swipes to open a photo and zooms out to go back?), some gesture don't work all the time
(like swiping down to close a photo : only works if the photo is fully loaded ?!?). Works great but isn't a
smooth experience.

I love how simple it is to back up my photos using Amazon Photos, and how clever it is at
identifying faces so I can search and look through all my photos of certain people (and combinations of
people) with ease. My only complaints are that a recent update appears to have taken away the ability to
easily (if at all) tag faces it doesn't automatically recognise, and the ability to see who is in an
individual photo.

The updated app is appalling. All the great features of the old app have been removed, with
an app that is not fit for purpose. Photos no longer rotate, and you are unable to manually rotate them
without downloading each photo. The on this day feature is now not on the home page as before. You are
unable to edit your photos in the app, but have to download, edit and upload. When are all these unwanted
features going to be addressed? The old app was brilliant

Not user friendly. The only way to select photos to add to an album is manually selecting
each photo. In an age where during a two week vacation over 1000 photos are shot, this is ridiculous. If
there is a way to add photos in a bulk, I could not find it, which is still a testament to a bad UX design.
One would think that Amazon could afford an app with the most basic features that are obvious for all the
other apps. The good points are the unlimited photo storage for prime members

Cannot backup (save, no sync) as usual. I remember like a few months ago I was able to
delete any files from my smartphone and that file was still available on Amazon; vice-versa, I could remove
a picture from the Amazon cloud but it was still on my phone because there was an option asking whether you
wanted to keep/delete a file. Now, this option is no longer available, so that basically I'm only able to
sync.

Unlimited photos at original quality! That's all you really need. However, for me the photos
have issues with uploading in the background. I have to visit the app every now and then to retrigger the
uploads, unlike Google photos where photos and videos are uploaded in the background. Also face recognition
isn't that accurate. Many faces are merged with other people's and many pictures aren't detected. The app
doesn't have the option to click on someone's face to see all their pictures.

I like the app. I'm always running out of space on my phone, so having an option like Amazon
Photos included in my prime membership is a big bonus. I wish I realized I had the option sooner. You only
get 5g of video which isn't much, so I ended up paying the extra $20 per year. Not all photos upload
automatically either so you need to double check which is annoying

Was an excellent 5 star app but recent update has ruined it totally. Doesn't work as well or
look as good. Lots of things are now poor. Didn't seen to have been tested properly. One simple example is
that the landscape mode doesn't happen anymore when you turn phone sideways You can't let them know of the
problems as feedback option doesn't work it just gives an error when you try and send it.

It would be a big improvement if there were more options for organising the content display
and access arrangements. eg. to be able to organise images and albums alphabetically, or some other user
selected criteria, rather than by date. Images which originated from a paper print don't come with a
meaningful date, and albums may have been created in some sort of pseudo random order. Better access to the
title metadata would also be very welcome. Otherwise I like the app very much.

Literally managed to take a bad product and make it worse. Not rocket science to create a
simple interface that gives me control over what I upload and where it uploads to. Just want to manually
select images, add them to an existing or create a new folder them. Instead, you have to faff through a bad
interface, upload photos from your device, go back to the bad interface, select add to album THEN select the
album to add to and move the items. It's a terrible process for something simple.

This has been the easiest means of backing up my photos without a doubt. Set it and forget

Been using this app for years, and while I'm generally happy with it, in recent days it's
been failing to upload due to connectivity issues. I've confirmed that BOTH the WiFi connections at home are
100% fine as all other services work without issue. Amazon Photos is the only app that complains about
connecting, and always after uploading one or two photos first.
Hentie de Vries
Honestly just awful. I struggle to get photos synced, there is no sync button./option. I
eventually cleared all app data and it synced. New photos are not syncing straight after fixing it by
clearing data. Some photos upload properly, some only upload a thumbnail. Why!? I would have to go through
thousands of photos to see which uploaded properly, and which did not. In other words, without doing that I
cannot delete photos of my device. This app is a half arsed attempt to compete with Google

Although it's nice I get unlimited storage included with my Prime membership, this app is
only good for backing up I'm afraid. It constantly pushes me to 'back up' photos automatically or 'risk
losing them'. Worse, this app seems to lack basic functionality like changing the order of the pics in an
album; mine are all newest to oldest and I'd like to switch that but can't. Also doesn't remember prefered
settings.

The latest UI change removed many options: you can apparently no longer pause an upload
(slow connection saturated by the upload? You'll have to kill the app!) / Your local photos are no longer
displayed, only the ones already uploaded / Uploading a big file manually doesn't show you the percentage,
so it's impossible to know when it will finish. On top of all that, the new UI is kind of awkward and it
seems to lack a dark mode.

I love it! I've been using it for the past 6 years and I still love it. I've changed phone
brands multiple times and this app has allowed me to do so without losing my pictures in the process. Of
course there are some things that could be improved (like taging people/faces the app doesn't recognice, or
being able to change tags of multiple pictures at once), but the overall service of the app still earn the 5
stars.

If you have an Amazon Prime subscription this is great. Can backup automatically or manually
and from multiple devices and we love the "on this day in years past" feature. Just pops up with photos from
the same date so lovely for little reminders of special occasions and holidays etc. You can create albums
for sorting photos and the Face recognition is really clever too (if not a bit scary how well it works). 😳
I think it reduces the resolution though so don't get rid of your originals.

Useful for backing up photos but the setting menu to choose which albums are uploaded is
pointless. All say no apart from 1 album I want to upload with pet pictures for our echo show display.
Rather than that 1 album it uploads everything off of my phone. Even after turning the albums on and off
again. I've had to remove permissions for the app to access my photos as it was still automatically
uploading even with the feature was turned off. It was even telling me to turn on auto-upload.

1) Regularly get occasions where the app tells me that photos are being uploaded but there's
no progress bar and changing / disconnecting / reconnecting internet does nothing. Often requires device
restart to fix. 2) How does Amazon not provide a way for us to see exactly WHAT images are being uploaded?
3) No ability to cancel the upload once it's started, at least not that I could see. Not a good experience.

Great alternative to Google Photos. Has almost all the same features, love face recognition.
Only issue that I can see with the app is the filtering. It seems like its not refreshing the photo squares
after filtering, so when you tap on a photo after filtering it's not the same image you tapped on. Other
than that I absolutely love the app and functionality. Unlimited photo storage is what brought me over. The
video upload can stand to get more space but Amazon needs to make money somehow!

Easy to use and discreetly backs up your photos in the background. It then gives you "on

noughties. This feature is better than google photos as you have control over the viewing as google will
only show a slide show. Doesn't do albums etc as well as google, but their is an album which you can create
that provides photos for the amazon fire tv screen saver. Really like that!

Since the switch to the new app, Amazon photos has become a real pain the use. The biggest
issue is that there is no way of telling what you have already uploaded when using manual upload mode. This
means I can't ensure that I've backed up all the photos I want to save. The old app used to show an icon
against photos that has not been uploaded. To add salt on the wound, the feedback function fails to work
every single time!!

Formerly it was possible to delete duplicated or poor photos from the app, the device or both. now only from
the app meaning more taps and swiped to remove from device. Photos can only be viewed using the app in
portrait mode meaning they are very small when casting and videos are not worth looking at. Not sure how
this update passed QA for final release. Amazon have been aware of these issues for months.

mistake on the "android return menu button" they don't present a describing messages, they just get back to
the album. I spent 1.5 hours choosing pictures and pressed the retun button by mistake, all my work is gone
🤦♂️.

What's not to like? Great way to categorize photos, and love the memory reminders.
Carlos Irineu
Short summary: utterly useless, no point in using it. It's really slow, compared to Google
Photos. There's is no interface to speak of. Photo grid is amorphous Ana makes no visual sense. Deleting
comes takes forever. My app doesn't see that I'm an Amazon Prime member (or at least that's what it said a
couple of times). For a company that has so many investments in server and high end IT, this app mama no
sense at all. I've just erased it.

I love how it makes. Photo collages for my photos by day and by matching photo subjects.

This new layout is the worst! Tried to report feedback but even that failed. The worst thing
is, it auto uploads my photos on data plan! Even though its all turned off! I cant check my photos without
it. Fix that asap! I can't scroll anymore by date, i have to check thousands of pictures what date i am on
so finding something is not possible without taking ages. That stupid feed cant be turned off, i dont care
about what happened on this day when. And its difficult to see what has been uploaded!

When trying to upload certain photos from Google Photos to Amazon Photos (to view on my
Amazon Echo as a swiping background display), this app can get extremely irritating when I'm trying to
create or add photos to a current album. There's this 2nd step of 'backing up' photos that's necessary in
order to upload photos to an album which is time consuming and pointless. Please make it possible to add
photos anywhere on my phone to a direct album to make this app worth 5 stars! Thank you.

Did not ask me to select which folders on my phone to backup at 1st use, it starts pulling
all my photos then kept trying to use them as screensavers on my firetv. Had to stop sync then try to fix.
The interface in odd, hard to sort through images. Why does it need to show u every single photo on your
device? I just want to see what is in the cloud storage only, no way to sort this, or to sort by anything
useful. I just want a simple a backup solution,this is invasive and not user friendly.

I really enjoy the amazon photo app as it's a great way to back up my photos. I like the
little 'throwback' reminders of photos taken on this day in previous years. I also really like the 'people's
function as it's a great way to find photos of people. I gave it four stars instead of five because it does
sometimes group people incorrectly and if it recognises someone wrong in multiple photos then you cant
ungroup or tag them manually to correct it. I also find that uploads glitchy sometimes
Justin Rille
The new update is GARBAGE! They revamped the whole thing and it's so bad. It's a lot harder
to navigate and not as organized as the last version. Everything is more difficult. And when you select a
picture to view from on this day and hit the back button, it takes you all the way back and to the top.
Everything about the update is horrible. Less user friendly.

Up until the last update it was possible to manage photo storage on my phone via this app
but not anymore! Could you please bring this option back?? If I didn't want a photo, I could delete it from
my phone and from Amazon storage in one go rather than having to do it twice. Also if I wanted to keep a
photo but not waste phone storage, I could delete it from my phone using the app, and a message would
reassure me that the photo is backed up on Amazon Photos.

Well up until today, this app has been working great and I've been happy with it. But now it
just keeps closing itself within a few seconds of opening it. I've removed the app twice and reinstalled it,
but it's still the same. I open it and it crashes after a few seconds. Really annoying and I've recently
uploaded almost 6000 photos to it and removed them from my phone. Not much use if I can't use the app. Like
I said, it was working great. Anyone else having this problem? I've sent in crash reports but no reply yet.
Come on Amazon!

I love that photos are presented to you in various styles, formats & I just adore the

collages is very personal which I appreciate. I love that it brings back those treasured moments with lost
loved ones, the little things that were captured & mean so very much. Brings me great pleasure. Sheer

Very difficult to rate this app, as although it downloaded ok, as soon as it took me to my

I'd already done!) Anyway, I did download whatever was going to be more updated than the last stated update
of 2018, & once again went through the whole procedure, only to discover that yet again "the" box
appeared, asking me to download the latest version! At this point I uninstalled the app!

It is very annoying that it automatically adds any new folder with out asking if the new
folder should be added to the list of folders to sync. So if I take a photo for an advert, or a screenshot
for the first time. It adds it to the uploads without asking, until I manually go into settings, remove the
it from the list and delete the unwanted screenshot or photo. Amazon are potentially learning more about you
from your photos. It should look at folders I select.

This app is just awful and so is the Amazon photo storage. It does not reliably upload and
it seems that any organization of photos (such as in folders) just gets totally lost, lumping screenshots,
actual photos, random pictures etc all in one. Since the point of it is to have a backup of photos, there
should be a easy way to get photos back from the storage, but there seemingly is not. I dread the day I
would actually have to rely on this to get my photos back. Already cancelled data plan. Avoid

New UI is truly terrible 🚫👎 I've been using this for over a year and it was my go-to photo
storage, it was brilliant and even better it was easy to use! But now, whoever is the big brain at the dev
team who decided to go with this UI needs their qualifications rechecked, this is the worst UI I have used
for an app. It can no longer be navigated intuitively like before. I highly doubt they'll change the UI
back, as always with big companies, it's conform or be crushed. It's a shame.

Hi. Some useful functionality and quite speedy. Would love it the following could be
improved: 1. Option to exclude my phones camera roll (mixing it with my camera photos uploaded). 2. Option
to sort so photos don't always have to be viewed in reverse - eg. Oldest to Newest etc (by filename too if
possible) 3. Settings option not to include the blurb every time the photo is shared - this is annoying to
remove the text every time. Thanks.

Still has plenty of bugs when compared to Google Photos - uploads are clunkier, and when the
app is running in the background it seems to lose track of what it was doing. If you keep checking in on the
app it eventually gets there. If you were paranoid about it going wrong then the desktop app may be the
better option. Unlimited photo storage (for now) is a huge bonus and I'll continue to use the app for that
reason.

Suspect there's a decent app in there somewhere, but it's way over-complicated and the
help/support is utterly useless. I'm using a mobile app, but all the help relates to desktop. Why? Some
photos are uploaded to the 'cloud', others aren't. Why? Most annoyingly, the option to download certain
photos is removed, seemingly at random. WHHHHYYYY?!

As long as you're a subscriber to Amazon prime, you are good to go! I would suggest a double

It says if I'm a prime member that I have unlimited storage. Nope. It's only 5GBs. Then it

This app is missing so much. It shows me all my photos on my device not just the photos on
Amazon. My gallery app does this already. I have no way to manage the photos on Amazon via phone. This is
useful if you want to delete photos off both devices but I don't want to see this. There is no option to
display only Amazon. If you go to upgrade storage space, there is no way to back out of the menu without
force closing and restarting the app. Unfortunately you should just use a web browser instead

Downgrading from 4 stars to 2 stars with the latest update - the UI is so confusing now and
features have vanished. You can't view the family vault by who took the photos anymore. So hard to know what
date you're looking at or what's been uploaded and what hasn't. They took a great app and butchered the
feature set. Will try it for a bit longer but probably going to go back to Google photos because right now
the browser version is the only useful way to access Amazon photos.

Probably the worst photo management tool I've ever used. - No folder structure whatsoever -
I try selecting individual folders to upload, it just uploads a random amount of the images - Tried deleting

because any new folder I create doesn't seem to show up in the app. - No select all option - The app just

the select all option when browsing through device folders. It makes it impossible to at lest pics you don't

The app is pretty good. Seems to back up my photos fairly seamlessly. The Google Photos app

only thing is the app seems to back up photos from folders that I have left unchecked in the settings. I
don't really want to back up screenshots and downloads even though it isn't actually costing me anything
(since the photo storage is unlimited).

Backs up my media and feels quite unobtrusive. The usability is typical Amazon: not good.
Lacks basics like selecting all pictures taken on one day! It's not always good at reading meta data like
location/timestamp, specially from videos, and does not support the "top shot" feature of the Google camera.
Managing the content of the family vault is really tedious. But of course, unlimited storage for pictures
with your prime account is a hell of a deal. Great service, regular app

Very hard to organize photos. No option Select All for example. Uploads new folders

thing is the unlimited storage for photos (if you have Prime of course). I would not recommend.

POSITIVES: Unlimited storage, so if you need a place to back up your photos, then this app
will suffice. NEGATIVES: Upon opening the app the first time, you are asked to back up photos off your
device. THERE IS NO OPTION TO CHOOSE WHICH FOLDERS TO BACKUP. This means that all content on your device is
backed up onto the cloud! There is no option to solely delete the images off the cloud, only to permanently
delete them off the cloud AND off your device. UTTERLY RIDICULOUS

An excellent app, but one thing frustrates me. I use it to back up photo shoots where I
literally took thousands of pictures. If I want to select all the photos in a particular folder, I have to
select them manually by selecting the first one, pulling down, and then holding my finger down while it
scrolls to the last image. That can take several minutes in a large folder, unless I'm missing some secret
gesture or command. A 'select all' command seems like an obvious omission here.

lists all photos from my device (not just the uploaded photos from device), because of this, I cannot bulk
select and add it to family vault (again no filters to just show up uploaded photos) I am literally using
this app to auto upload. If auto upload isn't there, probably I will uninstall.

Great tool to back up photos and have reminders of yesteryear. There's an annoying bug which
means while selecting multiple photos to upload, if you already uploaded one of the selected photos you
can't upload any. Really annoying if you've selected hundreds and you have to go back and find the one photo
that you already uploaded.

I decided to pay for Prime in a monthly basis, because of the Unlimited Photos storage. Full
resolution up load and download. I use to use Flickr, but when they wanted a ridiculous fee, the Amazon
Prime deal was a 'no brainer' excellent value deal with all the additional extras. Postage free on a lot of
items, quicker delivery, Free and reduce video rental plus reduced option Amazon Music, that streams to my
home media system. Bargain.. !

Unfortunately with the new update, I have had to downgrade my review from 4 to 1 star. The
app it's self looks cleaner and "newer" but the usability is just not there. Landscape just doesn't work
anymore, the navigation feels confusing, and the feature to edit photos is gone now. Amazon photos used to
be a good ish comparison to Google photos but now the android app has just dropped so bad. The only saving
grace for Amazon is the fact of unlimited photo storage, otherwise I'd use Google Photos

I like it. A few comments: -It would be great to have an info display option to see: ISO/
ftops/ shutter speed. -The preview photos compression is rather extreme (lots of posterizing in skies etc)
-It would be great to have an option to only auto-backup specific folders. -and in general please give more
customisation options, as people have different needs forn this app.

Maybe I'm missing something, but with the latest version I have no indication whether a
"local" photo on my phone has already been uploaded or not. You can select the same photo over and over
again and it is uploaded, but there is no indication that it already done. Previously a cloud symbol showed
whether a photo was uploaded or not. Hopeless.
Juan Boy
No longer uploads photos successfully just says it's saving forever. The new UX is
absolutely terrible, you can't easily keep track of what's uploaded or not. A quarter of the screen at the
bottom is used up by a useless slider. Why don't Amazon employ some proper programmers? It's apparent they
don't across every single tech item they attempt as nothing ever works properly.

Changes in this app are not helpful in my opinion based on my previous use. I particularly
don't like the absence of ability to edit. Formerly a very nice feature and one I used frequently. Also the
larger groups of previous year same date pictures has limited significantly my forwarding memories to
friends and family. I wonder what type of external user survey you used to determine features customers
wanted changed. I use the app every day and I previously gave it a high rating - saw no survey.

£79 per annum for next day delivery was my initial buy in, a necessity. Now I feel life
would be very different without the Prime experience. Music, books, video, TV and unlimited photography
storage! As a photographer this is brilliant! The app doesn't work quite like a cloud drive - it is more
like Google photos, only high resolution storage is included in the membership. I love redundancy, no matter
the layout, especially when so much else comes as standard. Great work, Amazon!

A generally flawed way to manage your photo collection. I use this to display photo
slideshows on my alexa devices and the app willfully uploads and displays images and folders I don't want to
back up. It seems everytime I look away for five minutes it's grabbed some new album and auto uploaded which
is hugely annoying. There's no quick way to multi select images for removal, you have to manually search and
remove individually and the 2022 update just made it worse, so changed to 1*

Edited, 1 year after still worse app you can find. 1. You can't view images that just
recently taken, you have to wait it to fully upload and only then see it 2. Images that are not synced are
can't added to albums, again must wait to sync 3. Sync not working if you not opened the app to 'remind' the
app that to sync 4. No easy browsing to all photos, need to run useless filter This app is simply garbage 🤮

Had so many problems with this app. At first it worked fine, however since having issues
months ago (app doesn't seem to recognise photos on my phone or sd card, I've uninstall Ed and reinstalled
multiple times) I've been going round in circles with amazon support, being told to try the same things over
and over again and still not had a resolution. Amazon photos is one of the reasons I pay for prime and I am
seriously considering cancelling my membership and going through the faff of transferring all the photos I
do have stored already.

seemed to be backed up on the app, which is easily over 200 photos, only to find out that only 9 photos have
actually been saved and these 9 photos are the only ones i can add to my screen saver album. Unable to add
or upload any other photos and no indication as to what the problem is - what a waste of time. I don't

Used to be able to manage device photos and amazon photos in one place, if I deleted

just want to find my albums. Trying to be flashy doesn't work when simple hasn't been nailed.

Useful automatic backup (which is mostly what I rely on it for under Amazon Prime). But, and
it's a big but, it keeps trying to back up/upload videos even after that part of my quota is fully used.
That's annoying and wastes battery. The PC Windows version does the same. It would be useful to choose not
to include videos. Or if they made the software a little more intelligent did it stopped trying when it hit
its limit.

Completely useless without a proper search function - if I click on e.g. places, I get a row
of place buttons in apparently random order. So, you expect me to scroll through hundreds or even thousands
of places just to find what I want out of 80,000 photos? I guess the developers tested their fabulous new
version on a huge database - of a dozen or so photos? Groan 🙄

I have 2 complaints: 1. If you share an album with someone that also has an amazon photo
account, they cannot collaborate with you on the album nor have the album show up in their own library. Also
the link will redirect to the browser instead of the app so it's pretty much a useless feature. 2. Yes you
can select which local folder to backup. However the folders you deselect still show up in the app's "yours"
tab. I mean if I dont want them backed up I also dont wanna see them on "yours" tab

App is just awfully buggy and badly written. Whenever a photo upload starts, it freezes half
way without finishing the task and I have to manually force it to stop. Annoyingly it also shares daily
reminders of memories from years back, but the algorithm for selecting photos just picks up the worst junk
almost as if it's on purpose. Overall the app feels like a cheap knock off of other photo apps on the
market.

I'm constantly running out of space on my device, so I'm looking for something that will let

problem. Only Google Photos seems to do this well.

I was enjoying this app, I've had it downloaded for ages and had no issues until this

Useful for backup, little else. If it worked as an app that had a feature or mode to show

Switched from Google photos, so far does what I expected. The only feature it lacks compared
to Google is that it always keeps a local copy of each photo. With Google photos I could free-up local
storage and keep the files in the cloud until accessed forcing to download a copy. Looks like I have to do
this manually now on the device. It would be nice if Amazon Photos would have a similar feature like Google
Photos to clean up locally after uploading and reminding me each time I open the app.

I've used Amazon photos for years now and always been happy with it. It used to be 5 stars

developers see these changes as improvements. Auto rotate no longer works when viewing photos, the "on this
day" memories feature which used to work seamlessly is now clunky jumping back to the top of the page after
viewing every picture so have to scroll down again. Delete from phone opt also gone

Not a default gallery app (should be), the UI is poorly designed, settings missing a variety
of options including battery level limit to halt downloads, unable to automatically upload photos added
(seems to not work, just checked, it is on and the new picture I took is still not uploaded, should have
been quickly done). The lack of this being a gallery means 2 apps for one process, the UI should be "out of

Keeps full quality of images but photo sharing and browsing is primitive compared to Google
and the new update made it even worse. You can have only one shared folder and within that folder you can't
jump to specific time or date. If you have 50k photos you have to scroll down for ages if you want to see
older photos. This update is so bad it makes me want to move to another platform.

If Amazon Photos was a human being it would be that partner we've all known; congenial,

This app should allow you to share what you want to share. Not just the option to access
your entire photo and video library. You can not delete anything from the app without it deleting from your
phone. It's also ridiculously unorganized, you can only sort by the date it was loaded not by folder. I just
wanted to upload 1 specific folder of Disney pics but they were all loaded a different times over the past 7
yrs so I have to go and click all of them through the last 7 yrs. No thanks! Stupid.

Sorting, albums, search are all far behind of anything current organizing and storage
applications would provide. If I click into an album, it opens an entry album, saying there is nothing in
there. Sorting allows by attributes such as "date uploaded" and "date taken", which is more than Amazon
Drive offers, but that's a whole different (worse) level of insufficient. No extra features. Family Vault is
not explained properly, I wonder how usage count of that is.

Amazon Prime clients do not have unlimited storage in my country for some weird reason.
Doesn't even have a way to access your trash items to permanently delete them, so I can't even make some
space for the photos I need backed up. Everybody should move to Yandex Disk. It is free and has unlimited
photos backup with the trade off of ads, which is fair. Get rid of all your Amazon products. They are a
scam. I still can't believe how a company that provides such low quality products can be this big

This app works very reliably. Good options to control the sync and upload. I only use it to
automatically upload pictures from my mobile to Amazon Photos. For managing pictures on my Amazon Photos
account I prefer to use the web. So I do not need any photo management or editing features on this app. I
prefer the app lean and fast for auto-sync and upload, and so far the app does that well.

Awesome so far... Just want there to be a place you go as soon as you open the app to see
all photos that are "on" the cloud (already uploaded to internet) only and remember that setting. It is nice
to know which ones from my phone are not yet clouded but that could be separate by default or user
preference. ---------+One thing that is annoying is that even though I already reviewed it on here it keeps
asking me to review it again.

The app is just not great. The interface is confusing, with all photos from the device shown
and you can't seem to remove entire folders like "whatsapp images" from this view. I have many folders of
junk that I never want to store on a cloud service - how do I get rid of these from the app? The app also
does not support a two-way sync, so I now have to delete the same photos in two places.

Full quality photos and videos. So has an edge over google photos if you value full

It would also be great if a 'remove duplicate' feature was included as myself and my wife share an account
and often have the same photo uploaded. All in all I'm sticking with amazon photos over the competition and
I pay for the extra storage for videos. Would like to see 3extra features to help with albums

The app works well, I am enjoying it and I use it everyday. Cons: - can't tell if photo is
only on amazon, or on both Amazon n device. must go through the action of deleting a photo to find out, too
many clicks - ability to view albums as grid or list. Reduce scrolling if there's many albums Pros: - albums
- share photos within the text chat (and not as a link) - memories, - pick which folders to backup -
scrolling tab that you can pull up or down to skip through photos quickly

Navigation to choose photos is horribe! No search, no resizing, no sorting, no nothing. It's
impossible to find photos to go in the same album from the thousands I have! Edit: found out ways to do so,
in the weirdest sections. The UI is not pretty. I wish there was an option to use a photo of an uploaded
folder as a bg every day.

This app has no network control. It will attempt to use a large portion of network pipe
without regard for anyone else on it, resulting in intermittent network access by everyone on the network. I
understand that you want to get the initial download done ASAP, but you shouldn't do that without thought to
the User eXperience. I had to disable it's access to WIFI as I couldn't find ANY pause button, and then I'd
forget to turn WIFI back on when I'd not be needing the network. This should have very low network priority.
Also, when I don't care if it uses my network, it would inexplicably pause, making it actually never
complete. Had to have it run in the foreground with talkback on to allow me to track its progress audibly
while not using the network to try and keep it downloading. VERY poor UX. If I could give it 0 stars or
less, I would.

Excellent and safe way to look after and store my photography collection. I really like that
the app creates gentle memory joggers in the form of random auto selected images then notifies you to view
them. These are always a welcome pleasure/diversion and often a surprise to see again. ie. My photography
began at age 20 and has continued for over 46 years so my collection is fairly vast. I'm fussy about quality
software and for my purposes, this mature app does exactly what it should, and more.

Storage space is amazing. Minus having to pay extra for videos. The search feature for
organizing photos is awful and uncomparable to Google photos. The app and the web page also have different

duplicates are stored together. Definitely has a few good features and storage. I wish I could organize the
same as I do with Google photos.

I'm afraid I'll have to join the chorus of bad reviews for this app. I've filled up my 5gb

so my photos won't upload, so annoying. Also, can't view in landscape, come on Amazon, that's an easy fix.

The new UI removes the ability to add individual photos and videos to the family vault. It's
either all media or nothing right now. This exact update, missing features and all, was rolled or to iOS
months ago (want to say begining of 2022), why the bug fixes and updates done to iOS were not brought over
to android? Beats me. Right now the reasons I subscribe to Amazon and not google are missing with this
update, please make it a priority to retrofit the bug fixes the iOS team have already fixed.

It's a bit laggy, not as responsive as Google Photos. Photos are not clearly separated by

After 22'Q4 redesign it's VERY inconvenient to upload selected photos to Amazon cloud. 1.
Pictures to upload can only be previewed as rather small thumbnails. I make multiple shots of the same scene
and need to see it full screen to choose which version i want to upload. 2. When sharing from eg photo
Gallery app, Amazon Photos does not show up on the list apps a photo can be shared to Please allow full
screen view of photos to upload. Please restore this app as share destination.

I particularly like it when the app shows me a memory from this day last year because it's
easy to forget where we were or what we did. However, I'm experiencing a glitch just now - an upload has
sort of stuck and I don't know what to do to get it going again. Perhaps the tech experts could check that
out? Otherwise I find Amazon Photos much easier to use than say, the Cloud or whatever.

This is THE BEST photo storage software I have found!! As a photographer I have tried many
different services over the years, and Amazon Photos tops the rest for me for the following reason: - You
can set it to automatically upload all of your photos (many services offer this) - When you delete the
photos on your phone, they aren't deleted from Amazon Photo (HUGE perk for photographers) - They has an
option called "Smart Albums" which collects your photos into the same albums as your phone

photos using apps like this but thought I'd give it a go. Over 4 or 5 days I downloaded my photos at night
and they all went on admittedly l Slowly but I had so many. I checked and the were all there. So I deleted
the photos in my phone not in the app. I went into my app and 80% of the photos are not there anymore, tried
to get help but that link doesn't work. I'm so pissed off with this app and amazon.

Does what it's supposed to. Automatically backs up photos which is handy. I've gad no issues

I've not done anything else with it. It does give reminders of photos from previous dates which I find a
good feature. I asnt aware there was a limit on the amount of video space your allowed (5 gig) which is
really annoying. That made me downgrade my rating from 4 to 3 stars.

The Amazon Photos facility is great as a repository for all those thousands of pictures and

to sort and view the images later. There is no map-based location finder. The algorithm for recognising
peoples' faces isn't as reliable as others. It is no longer as straightforward to filter on year taken
either, as the option appears to have disappeared since a recent upgrade.

photos is incredible. It's also cheaper than google if you already subscribe to prime! The only downside is

Latest update/rehaul makes this app UNUSABLE! I understand their desire to bring it up to
speed with the iOS version, which looks good and works good. But whoever tested this new release, and
whoever approved it, should be fired on the spot... This is a half baked product, full of bugs, and missing
basic features. As a paying user, I am extremely disappointed, as my partner and I were using the old
version successfully with the Family Vault.

Moved my photos from Google photos to Amazon photos. Too bad there is no longer unlimited
photo upload after June 2021. Amazon photos has unlimited photo upload at high quality. The photos upload
from my phone was problematic. Had to manually select the photos and upload. But all photos were eventually
uploaded. Any new photos taken are automatically synced. Automatically create new albums with the photos.

So many little things wrong with this. Face recognition matches people that are different.
That's okay, if there's a way to train the algorithm that these are different people, but there's no way to
do so. That makes search by people useless. The video player doesn't let me seek while the video is paused,
making it difficult to show friends particular videos. It's just poor UX.

constantly deleting data for media storage to try to get this app to find my photos but it's always about 2
months behind in backing up my pictures.

I love how well I can adjust so many things about the pictures to get them right ! It took
no time at all to use the App, every thing is clearly marked!

Love the service and storage space, although a few features would improve it. Firstly, it
would be good if it converted uploaded folders into albums as now I'll have to manually put them all into
named albums. Second it would help if it remembers the sorting setting (date uploaded rather than date
created). Another mishap I had was it automatically started uploading thousands of my phone pics which I had
to go back and manually delete. On the whole though an excellent service.

Excellent App. User friendly. Saves my precious memories.

By default, all your device photos show up in the photos section, which isn't ideal if you
only want to use the app to manage photos you uploaded... You can hide photos yes, but you have to hide new
ones every single time you take one which is just annoying. So frustrating as I was hoping I could manage my
cloud photos on the fly. I've uninstalled it.

you need to do a update on your app I have to delete it and install it 16 times in one day
it not work right every time I tried to to delete a photos nothing works
David Ritchie
Horrible lack of folders. My photos are stored in organised folders on my phone. But the
photo app is just a bucket of tens of thousands of pictures. No i dont want to spend ages sorting them into
albums when they were originally nice stored folders. No way to organise the albums by date either.
Impossible to see if it's a copy for copy backup of my photo folders on my phone which means it is useless
as a backup. Now moved everything to Google drive.

Super easy to use and when using your firestick and it's paused your pictures become the
screen saver!! Love this feature!!
Titus Wheatbread
99p/year for unlimited storage space for photos and videos is unbeatable. I looked
everywhere and I was surprised to see Amazon was the cheapest. I love how whenever I take an picture or
screenshot, it automatically syncs with the Amazon cloud. Never have to worry about losing images again and
I can make space on my phone by deleting all my pictures/videos without having to worry about ever losing
them. I've also never had any issues with this app/service. 5 stars, highly recommend👍

Almoust unusable after update. Less control on how to group and upload. You see ALL your
images together from your entire life. Group by it's own rule with no flexibility. You can't upload a
group/folder from your phone like before and make an "Album" directly, but you have to select each photo one
by one, or upload all (which is a NO,don't want to save all garbage img from WA). It would be super-usefull
to be able to sort album also A-Z/Z-A

I've had the app for 2 days and it's done nothing but upload! The only option seems to be
turn off automatic uploads...which defeats the purpose of a cloud storage doing its thing in the background.
I don't want this app to be uploading every time I take or save a photo to my phone. I'd like to be able to
set a time per day or per week to upload photos. It's too excessive and has been overheating my phone and
using up way too much battery!

Was a little sceptical about transferring my photos to this app but it's quite amazing how
clever it is when trying to find a photo. I'm am seriously impressed. Also quite reassuring that it doesn't
use your data to target you with horrible ads and only to make the app more user friendly. Also very easy to
download all of your images onto a hard drive if you no longer wish to keep Amazon Photos.... Well done
Amazon!

Particularly beneficial now Google photos are introducing a 15gb limit. Also, the photos are
saved in the original resolution. Searching for particular photos is good too. In most cases you are given
the option of deleting a photo from the cloud and/or from your phone as well. It's possible to view your
photos on an Echo Show or similar.

Robert Kroon
(Initial review) It is a good way to have another backup for your photos, but the app is
hard to navigate. Also, even though all my photos were backed up, I can only view some of them. Any photos
above a certain size cannot be viewed in the app and can only be downloaded (not that you would know which
picture you are downloading)

The new updated UI is atrocious. The app worked so well before and now it's glitchy and
honestly it looks a complete mess. I liked that it removed photos from Amazon and my device when I deleted
images, but now it only deletes them from Amazon. So it doesn't work as a way of keeping my photos clutter
free like it used to. Just overall really disappointed that they've ruined what was a decent app before.

It's like a memory extension. I don't have to try to recall something. I just take a picture
of it and always look back and see it. And always know where I saw it and where I was when I saw it
sarcrystic
I appreciate that there are unlimited photos for prime users, but the UI is terrible when
compared to Google photos. There is also not many features such as a favouriting photos or searching for
photos. Sometimes the app is buggy. The app design isn't the best and it can be much better considering
Amazon is a massive company. There could be a more modern design similar to Google photos. Please consider
what I say and compare to other photo backing up apps to make this one really good. Thanks

This update is causing lots of issues. Even after manually adding my phone's, they do not
appear in the feed. This was never an issue prior. Also felt like the previous UI was easier to navigate and
set according to individual use. Not a big fan of this update, hopefully fixes are developed soon.

November 2022 update makes this app useless as a media viewer. I don't want all my photos in
he cloud, I want to see all my photos though and this update makes it impossible to share pics not uploaded,
impossible to view pics not uploaded, and very difficult to upload them. Photos also only appear in portrait
mode, so is useless for landscape pictures. Please Amazon, think before making stuff worse. Simplify and
Invent.

There are multiple ways to edit the picture, but not enough choices. However, you need to
download it first. I do like it, and because it is part of my Amazon Prime, I don't have to pay for it.
Otherwise, I would not use it.

I just subscribed to this because it was given to me free through Amazon prime. As I'm
setting it up all my photos disappeared over 6,000 photos lost. I don't recommend this app

Really bad experience, would use any other app if they would provide a similar cloud

a company this big and a basically paid service. There is nothing 'prime' with this app.
